Re: Supreme Court Watch
Qualified obviously, but for this position does it matter so much? Supreme court in US is a political position and in this case Democrats score one. That's all really...

Re: Supreme Court Watch
This might matter in a parallel universe but with Kavanaugh on the bench this is just graffiti.

Re: Supreme Court Watch
I think you underestimate the legal expertise required for the position. Yes, it's a political appointment in the sense that presidents pick nominees based on whether they tend to agree with their interpretation of the law, but it's still probably the most sophisticated role in the government. The fact that some recent nominees were less qualified doesn't take away from that.

Re: Supreme Court Watch
But isn't that going to backfire quickly? The sole thing she has to say is "I was appointed by the court, and everybody is warranted a defense".
It is not even smart.

#KetanjiBrownJackson gave the gunman 4 years in jail, a stiff sentence. While no one was hurt, his brand of vigilante justice "is utterly incompatible w our constitutional scheme and rule of law," she told him. 3/
The Judge noted that the gunman took violent action based on an "internet rumor." Her concern: other deluded ppl "will take up arms with the intent of sacrificing lives in order to achieve what they believe is a just result." This was 4 years before the #Jan6 insurrection 2/

When you hear people throwing the word "unqualified" around think about this chart.
